Some Info about the PreSeason patch (ASSASSINS)!
For those of you without PBE, or who want some super-basic quick info on the assassins: I got a few words for ya.
ASSASSINS: Talon plays very much like he used to, but you (the target) live a LITTLE bit longer. His new E (terrain jumping parkour shit) is super cool, and has some kickass animations. This guy Is gonna be one hell of a roamer. His W Rake waits a moment before flying back at him, and his Q can be a gapcloser, but it sacrifices damage if he uses it as such.
Akali is pretty much the same, but note her passive no longer is a ball of stats, it is 2 autos where one heals and one does bonus dmg, and the timing is kinda like Kled W. Also, she jumps forward when you W. Haven't figured exactly what happens / how it is targeted yet, might just be mouse location, but it is cool.
Rengar came out pretty cool. He won't be ulting to FIND people anymore, but his playstyle is still pretty similar. Note he can't build up ferocity and then jump on you, but rather he gets it quickly to build to an empower ability. He still LOVES CDR and AD, and Critgar might be gone with the way the new Q works. Also, a good rengar will use his W to become a burst mages worst nightmare, as it heals 50% of the damage taken in the last second and a half.
Leblanc is way too fucking confusing. She KINDA plays the same, but she got ryze-style waveclear and fuck me if I am ever gonna understand her ult on my own. Shit is too confusing, too many words.
Zed is largely the same dude, but he Reaps ur AD instead of getting free AD on W. Check it out, kinda neato.
Katarina is DOPE ASF and bounces around alot more, but also requires planning and positioning to really get her damage off. She has awesome animations and there is setup time to her burst. I think Katarina might become a community favorite out of the reworks. SHE THROWS KNIVES RUNS FAST AND JUMPS TO THEM. Oh yeah, she can jump to knives now.
Kha'Zix looks to be EVOLVING into a skirmisher more than a burst assassin, getting heavier emphasis on his stealth and shifting from high damage ISO Q's to more frequent ISO Q's once he ranks up his claws.
Fizz doesn't have % damage anymore everybody cheers and he is rewarded heavily for long range chark picks, rather than walking to ur face and forcefeeding you fish.
More lies in the assassins, but that will all come out.
STEALTH REWORK Stealth in 2 categories: Camoflage and Invisibility.
Camoflage: Think old evelyn. Invisibility: Like Kha'Zix, but not revealed by pinks, only by towers.
That is all I have for ya, like i said, just a quickie. Hope it was helpful for those who don;t have time to sit down for a long read!
